IamAnderson:

he has never pooped or peed in the house before, even in his kennel too.
I was able to do that with routine, right from when he was very young I was always watching him to study his pooping habit, when I noticed he liked pooping after eating and peeing every few hours that was when I started letting him inside the house.
after feeding him, I send him out to poop and let him back inside when he's done.
then every few hours I take him out to pee too, within a couple of weeks, he was doing it by himself.
even if i wasn't paying attention once he wants to pee or poop he'll go and stand at the door and be looking at me to open it.
so we always made sure the door was open when he's inside.
even if he's playing he'll go out to do it and come back when he's done
the same with his kennel too, we never locked him up for too long, after some hours we let him out to pee and poop and he never did it it his kennel.
if he's locked up and he's pressed he'll come to the door of the kennel and be looking around waiting for someone to let him out.

there was one day when he was very young I forgot to let him out to pee and poop at night, at that time,he was sleeping in the visitors toilet.
he stayed there and cried for hours before I woke up and opened the door, he ran out immediately and went out to pee even before coming back to greet me.
it's just a matter of how you can keep up a routine, when you let a dog get comfortable around it's poop it'll feel it can do it anywhere.
if you start from an early age to show the dog where to do all that it'll learn and do it itself.

I've tried this on a puppy that was fond of pooping anywhere in the house and even eating it's own poop, within some time, the puppy started going to the big wastebin in the compound to poop where the poop could be easily scooped up and disposed in the wastebin.

Thanks so much for the tip. Will try this with my pup

since it's Valentine I decided to give Roscoe a treat to console his loneliness
Vincentjk has already told me to get something other than food for him but I don't know what else to give him that he'll appreciate...he'll just have to manage this for now

if you want to help solve his loneliness problem you can send your bitches for him , contact me on this number 09032873583 any location is welcome and boarding is not an issue

IamAnderson:
Roscoe's meal for the day, indomie cooked with chicken organs and intestines and shredded chicken pieces and bones mixed with raw egg.
I usually pour the chicken mixture inside the indomie and mix it then serve

Are these chicken intestines cooked or you feed them raw to Roscoe?

Damn this meat looks so appetising I must confess, sadly I got too busy today and forgot to get augusto what I promised him for Valentine. I must be a bad dad for that

TCD:

cooked, I only feed raw meat when it's frozen and when I'm okay with the source.
otherwise, I cook it first

Yeecar:

Seriously what do you feed your dog with?

just lots of meat, eggs, rice and spaghetti for now.
he ate dry dog food till he was a year old then I tried other diets along the line after that till I decided to settle on the rice, spag and protein diet

Okay bro

the heat wave has been so bad in port Harcourt so he has been struggling with it. I wasn't even able to photograph or walk him for weeks because of the heat.
luckily, the heat is going down and his energy is picking up again

he still doesn't let anyone touch his ball

What if I force the ball off his mouth nko

vincentjk:

What if I force the ball off his mouth nko

once you come close to the ball he'll start growling at you I'm the only one that can take the ball from him

His fur is impressive, is he still fast?
He looks pretty heavy

Dreazy23:

sure, he can still run and even jump and stand on his hind legs.
I wouldn't say he's very fast like a gsd or dobberman but he can carry his weight and run fast enough.
and when given the motive, he's surprisingly quick on his feet.
Caucasians aren't really a very fast breed sha, they're more of strength and stamina than speed and agility so he's just like that

I have been following your thread and learning,I really appreciate the effort, dedication to share in this thread and share knowledge. Thank you. I have never owned or trained a Dog but I admire alot, hope to soon own one. I recently moved to a new place self contain and have 3 neighbours(self contain too) there isnt much space in the compound tho, but my flat is the closest to the backyard and there is a small burglary veranda, my immediate neighbour has a 2 year old daughter, I am concerned the barking at night might wake up the baby and make them unhappy(not sure tho) Now my questions;
1. What breed will you advice a 1st time owner? I personally like the CO, GSD and bull mastiff?
2. How do instill discipline in the pup, especially when you need it to follow regulations?
3. How much did you spend averagely month from 2months to 7/8months and also how much do you spend monthly now its an adult?
4. Are there drugs or things given as PREVENTION against PARVO?
5. Since garlic& ginger are good for boosting immune system in Human and poultry (have a small poultry), will it be safe to say I can incorporate sparingly in the dogs meals.
Making plans and saving to buy a Female of any of the breed I decide on based on advice's and considerations.
Thank you.

thanks for the compliment
I'll try to answer you to the best of my knowledge
1. do not get a CO or bullmastiff, they grow very big and they can be quite stubborn and aggressive, it's not going to be safe for a 2yr old around.
a gsd is better for a first timer as they are obedient and they don't grow to a very scary size that can disturb your neighborhood, your neighbours will feel less at risk with a gsd around than a bullmastiff.
gsds are prone to bark a lot so the noise will have to be controlled, make sure you have enough time for the dog to prevent the noisy barking that happens when they get bored or poorly socialised.
2. the amount of commands a pup can understand and obey depends on the age so that's going to some time to perfect and different dogs learn different ways so you have to get the pup and try different techniques so you'll see the one that works for you.
3. the amount of money spent on feeding depends on the diet, appetite and breed of the dog. CO and BM eat a lot and they grow bigger which means they'll require more food as they grow, gsds don't eat that much so the food size differences will be much.
also the diet you intend on putting the dog one determines the cost, a bag of dry food costs about 8k to 15k for a 9kg bad last time I checked. you also still need to supplement with meat and vitamins.
for a large/giant breed dog, that 9kg bag won't be enough to last a month after a couple of months if the dog has a strong appetite. you then have to upgrade to a 15-20kg size bag which costs 18-25k per bag (I'm estimating the prices, I haven't checked on them for a while and the brands have different prices)
a gsd can still eat the 9kg bag for a longer period of time
if you decide to use home cooked meals, the cost depends on your choice of meal.
4. yes vaccines for parvo virus are administered for that
5 garlic is actually harmful and poisonous to dogs while ginger is a good anti-inflammatory food, if you want something that'll boost your dog's immunity then get probiotic rich food for it. unsweetened natural yoghurt is rich in pro biotics and is a very good supplement for a pup's diet.
dry food also contains pro biotics.

A bull mastiff is not aggressive, boerboel are not trained or bred to be aggressive
If u see one, then u see a killer.

Bullmastiffs are known to be very territorial, my uncle once had a very pure one when i didn't know much about dogs (around 2010)

Same with boerboels, my augusto has strong natural aggression which I'm trying to control in time. His father is from calidon boerboels and all his dogs are tough headed dogs... Not for everyone he always said
